  1. I see things from Chloe's perspective too. Also Clark's. I love them together as individuals and together but I've been saying since season 3 that I think a good part of what makes them so wonderful as individuals even is that bond they share together. I don't mind their ups and downs this season, it can happen in a situation where there is this level of intense closeness. They are more than just friends, they are each other's closes family, I think. Still, as a viewer, and as a total new viewer who never watched anything before, since I love their friendship so much, I was just uncomfortable because I felt the show was forcing me to pick a side in their comflict, where I've never felt that before. And I hated that simply because I love them both so much. I can see what you're saying about Clark in that scene, but I felt nothing but sympathy. He had just been betrayed in the worst way by Oliver, Bart and Dinah. He couldn't find Lois anywhere. And Jimmy's death was the culmination of everything that went wrong with Davis. I could totally see him being broken the way he was. He's always there for Chloe, as sje is for him, but his actions made sense to me. My problem with Chloe in the Davis this was a bit of, I suppose she had such strong feelings towards Davis, I wish she was more honest about that and admit it to Clark. After all, if Clark is dumb enough to have feelings for superpowered Lana then he can surely sympathize with Chloe. But she never acknowledged that. Even right up to the end in assuring Jimmy that she was only ever with Davis to protect Clark. It felt false to me because I thought, wait, then what about the sexy dream and the glances and the star gazing. And the problem also was that I loved her for stopping Clark from sending Davis to the Phantom Zone because she knows him so well and she knows that he would feel guilty about it. Because no-one knows Clark like she does. So I guess I was just taken aback when knowing how well he tends to take heaps of guilt on him, she told him that everuthing she did right or wrong including condemning herself to a life with Davis on the run was for Clark. I just thought she would get how that would make Clark feel ten times more guilty than the Phantom Zone even because here he actually truly loves the person involved, Chloe. I saw the Jimmy thing differently not because I wanted Chloe to take his side or be with him. I've been hoping for the end of this relationship since it began. And in a weird way I was really enjoying the Chloe and Davis chemistry even though I knew it was going to end badly. But if she married Jimmy, then he should have been the one she believes, she is with, feels romantic towards, and all that. It just made Chloe seem, almost a bit Lana like, when she was with Whitney and had feelings for Clark or when she was with Adam, and again Clark, lol. I didn't like Clark during Power and Requiem and I had problems with Chloe during Beast to Doomsday. But I still love them and am rooting for them to get back to each other. Maybe build something stronger even, after the terrible tragedy.
  2. I am terribly conflicted about this season!! There are SO many parts that I absolutely loved while there were other parts that I hated the way the way I've hated NOTHING else up till now. But first, let me admit. I missed Lex. SO much. :( The Lex this season? Yeah, right. If it's not Michael Rosenbaum, I 'aint buyin'. They killed Jimmy?! I'm just in shock. I really am. Why?! Ok, I never liked the character all that much and I hated him and Chloe together but now all I can remember is stuff I liked about him. Go figure! Like his figuring out Clark's identity, and everytime he tried to scoop out a story with Lois. And that was such an awful way to die. Can't believe I'm saying it but poor Jimmy. Clark. Lana. OMG. Someone please tell me this is IT?! I've never hated Lana nor Clark or Lana together. The contrary in fact. Sure I've had big problems with the way their relationship was sometimes just never ending yo-yo and the way Lana was written at times but this. This feeling in season 8 was just new. I have to say hate because I never want to see Lana again. Ever. All those five (ok not five, I only hated Power and Requiem, but it was big hate) episodes did was make me hate Lana, hate Clark a little but too actually for being such a dumbass and the hate the writers for thinking this storyline was in any way a good idea. They resurrected Lex for this? They had Clark completely ditch his brains and not question Lana at all on her taking the super suit. And they turned Lana into a borderline, powers obsessed psycho. And then the ending?! They are not the forever love in comics or any other incarnation so what was that crap? I especially hated them saying I love you as their parting words. So basically leaving neither fit to have any other kind of relationship. Just awful. I have no idea what they're doing with Oliver. He's the same guy who selflessly like a true friend rescues Clark in Odyssey and helps him out and takes his advice in Identity, and sweetly lends an ear to Lois in Bride who also KILLS 'Lex' and shoots Clark in the back and basically constantly berates him for having an ego. Seriously, am I just not following something here? This season also made my Clark-Chloe love a little dented and I HATE that. While there was still a TON to love about them this season, I really didn't like that whole stretch of Beast, Injustice and Doomsday. Because I just got this really weird vibe. I don't know, like I feel that Chloe took some definite missteps in the Davis debacle and it was this shady kind of stuff while I think we were supposed to hate Clark for walking away at the end, but I didn't. I couldn't! Because I couldn't shake that feeling when I heard Chloe tell Jimmy in the finale that only reason she ever was with Davis was to protect Clark. Or when she told Clark that too, for that matter. Because Chloe had real feelings for Davis. She had a sexy dream about him, she was gazing upon looking up at the starry sky with him. She liked that he needed her. She always took his side against Jimmy's. Which is another thing that bothered me. God help me I hated her relationship with Jimmy but if you married him, then he ought to be the guy. No-one else. She tasered Jimmy and then went to soothe Davis. I really couldn't understand Chloe as she was written here. Up till Eternal, I could see Davis agreeing willingly to go with any plan but once Chloe started aiding and abetting him, it's like the beast side became more confident and unwilling to be reined in. I can't believe that they had Bart and Dinah and Oliver stand over Clark like that in the finale. Were they trying to make me hate them?? The character of Davis ultimately went no where. Sad. Lost potential. I thought Doomsday was supposed to be a big deal. So, wow. Had to get all that out of the way. It sounds like I hated everything but there was so much to love too. Like, ironically, despite my issues with Chloe in those stretch of episodes with regards to Davis, boy did they have some smokin' hot chemistry! It was all twinkly one moment, sexy next minute. Amazing. And up until Eternal, I actually thought they were written really well. I even understood her siding with Davis over Jimmy if it meant showing how wrong her and Jimmy were, although I'll admit that never in a million years did I think I'd be siding with Jimmy over Chloe, but that's another matter. But they hit gold, chemistry wise with Chloe and Davis. I also loved so much Chloe's watchtower status. How kickass that she gets to do what she does. She was truly meant to do this, you can so tell how she's in her element. I hated seeing everything fall to pieces at the end. All the Clark and Chloe scenes up until Beast were just so wonderful, just *love* Allison Mack as Brainiac was chilling! What a great season for her in terms of acting. She really got to do it all. I've never been more impressed. Clark was simply magnificent this season. Barring Power and Requiem! And I can't say enough good things about Tom Welling. He was born to play this role. He's earnest, kind, yet confident and heroic. I was so happy to see him at the Daily Planet and saving lives and being there for his friends. Even when not everyone was always there for him this season. I was really happy with Lois this season. Not since her first four episodes in season 4 did I like her so much. I was saying in my last season thoughts that it seemed like Lois was in love or on her way in love with Clark and I was right. I don't think he feels that way about her but he's definitely drawn to her more than he probably realizes. I thought all their scenes were lovely, be it comedy, dramatic or the romantic ones. You could tell that everything episode 1 onwards was this wonderful build up to the climax in Bride, when everything changed forever. I could understand Lois putting her walls up a bit later in Infamous and Hex. She still loves him but doesn't want to deal with his mixed signals and she's got the Red-blue-blur fascination too now. Tess Mercer is a great addition to the show! At first I thought, huh, female Lex replacement, I shall neverrr like you! But she really grew on me and has such terrific chemistry with all the cast members. She's completely insane but in such a fun way. I'm really looking forward to more of her in season 9. I really liked that there were more Chloe and Lois scenes this season. These two are very believable as loving cousins. Episodes I loved? So many. Odyssey, Plastique, Instinct, Committed, Prey, Identity, Bloodline, Abyss, Bride, Legion and Hex. I hated Power, Requeim, Doomsday and parts of Beast. I was pretty indifferent about Toxic, Eternal and Injustice. I liked Bulletproof, Infamous, Turbulence and Stiletto but not love. On to season 9. Two more to go! Editing to add, is it just me or did I notice some really great chemistry between Chloe and Oliver! Now that's something I wouldn't mind seeing....
  3. LOL. Wow, ok. That's interesting. I somehow find that fanon idea incredibly organic. Like I could see that happening. Please, if you don't mind. I won't start season 8 till tomorrow night of day!
  4. I liked it! A lot. I can't believe, Lex knows. Wow. I am just in awe of how great this season was for Lex. I loved his friendship with Clark in the first three seasons and to be honest I was sad at its fracturing through seasons 4 and 6. I knew it had to happen but my biggest problem was how Lex was being written, there seemed to be little direction at times. But if you want to escalate him fully towards the dark side, then this is how you do it. All season long it seemed as if we were building to that moment when he kills Lionel and meets Clark in the fortress. He was so focused and had an actual team of people working for him that we saw for several episodes. I don't know why I liked that so much but I did. All his interactions with Clark, throughout the season, I just realized I think, how invested I am in these two. I found myself a bit frustrated with Clark early on in the season but overall I think it was a good season for him too. For better or worse, Clark has wanted a normal life and he seemed to be getting that briefly but his life comes with such complications and so much baggage I can't help but feel sorry for him. I thought it was nice that the writers allowed him to have some say in his issues with Lana and it wasn't just that Clark was so mistrustful and Lana was completely justified. I think both had some valid issues with each other but I've noticed usually only Lana gets to say what's on her mind. But not this season. That was interesting. Clark was moved by everyone around him this season telling him what he should or shouldn't do, I felt his inner conflict and sometimes probably even frustration. His self doubt bothers me but his heart is always in the right place. I can't say enough good things about Clark and Lex. I loved that Clark said he would always look out for the good side of Lex in Fracture. I think my heart melted. And then in Descent. Descent has to probably me my favorite episode so far. Top three definitely. In Descent it really becomes clear how dangerous Lex is because he believes he's right. And then their confrontation in the last episode. Lex saying he loved Clark like a brother and Clark nodding! Where can they go from here?? Please don't say memory being erased!! I felt sorry for Clark and Lana. They tried so hard but it's just something or the other with them. It seems to me Lana is now definitely off the show because they seemed to be easing her off with her not in any episodes and then she broke up with Clark. I don't mind them moving on but did she have to break up with Clark like that? I don't like Chloe's power and I still don't like her and Jimmy together. I thought Jimmy had better chemistry with Kara. But Chloe is growing into a hero of her own. I love that. The Clark and Chloe friendship is one of the highlights for me. They're like my safe zone in the show because no matter what I know they have each other's back. So how much did I cheer Chloe on in Traveler! And how much did I love how happy Clark was for her happiness in Apocalypse! So much. What a truly, beautifully written relationship. I'm really curious about what Brainiac said to her about what she was?! I enjoyed the sibling like rivalry between Chloe and Lois this season too. It seemed fairly natural actually. I wish there were more scenes of them together though. I didn't think anyone could have less chemistry than Chloe and Jimmy but Lois and Grant happened. It wasn't a bad storyline, I actually liked Grant, but their scenes together were just too boring. I like where the show seems to be going with Clark and Lois. Their friendship seems to be building consistently and it's a different kind of friendship that I think has snuck up on them. I really loved what Lois said about Clark in Siren and how she was there for him in Apocalypse and Arctic. I noticed this around Crimson last season and this season has just made me think even more, I actually think Lois has developed some real feelings for Clark. As in romantically. I liked Kara but she was really wasted for a lot of the season. But some of her scenes were very good. She had some good chemistry with Jimmy and Lex. Why did they bring Pete back for that?! Brainiac was used much better in this season than season 5. I can see why he's such a pain in the ass because you just can't seem to get rid of him. I tried to make sense of the Krypton/Lara/Zorel storyline but I failed. I'm just going to zone out certain things I don't understand, I've learnt from the stones storyline in season 4 lol. But it was really interesting that they tried to fill in some holes there in Veritas. That the Teagues were in pursuit of the stones regarding the traveler and how these four families were working together. Great stuff. My favorites of the season were Cure, Siren, Traveler, Veritas, Descent, Apocalypse, Arctic, Really excited for season 8! Please don't disappoint!
  5. My least favorite season yet. Just too many bad episodes. Boring episodes! And a few storylines had me so confused and/or infuriated. Why did they write Clark like this? So passive, reactive? I love Clark. I want to continue loving Clark for the remainder of the series but I hate this mopey, love centric Clark. He's a hero and he's saved so many people so many times, why won't the show let him continue on that path rather than this sad version who just can't seem to get over his first love. I mean, I really felt for him because it's obvious how much he loves Lana and in the second half of the season, I even began feeling a little sympathetic towards Lana again but this relationship, the way it plays out, does not make for good viewing and doesn't particularly reflect well on the characters either. So much of this season was about this triangle with them and Lex that it totally sapped my enjoyment. I also hated what this storyline did to Lex. I get they need to get him closer to his eventual villain status but a fake baby? And murdering the doctor for those impulsive reasons? The 33.1 storyline for him made sense, but this weird need to keep Lana in his life at all costs, didn't. I also wanted to laugh and tear my hair out in frustration at Lana's indecisiveness. She loves Lex but she loves Clark too. She wants to investigate Lex but now she doesn't. I am so over Lionel. I really don't get him at all. Maybe I'm dumb. Really, because I don't understand how he's written more than half the time. Where is he coming from, I can never tell. And the other character's reactions to him seem to be telling me how to react to him like ridiculous thanksgiving scene in Rage. But it's not working. I didn't like Oliver. I was so happy when he left. I hated that he got to basically tell Clark that he sits on his ass all day doing nothing when that's not true. That silly little relationship with Lois was also given too much importance, it didn't call for that big, dramatic breakup in Justice. Justice was a nice attempt at getting all the characters back and it was a good episode for Lex but I hated how Clark was relegated to a nothing status. Has Martha left for good? What a sad little send off. I liked Jimmy a little better than Oliver but I did not like him and Chloe together. The overly cutesy thing isn't working for me. I don't think these two have any chemistry. I wonder if he's been written out too? Chloe is meteor infected... Right, so by that standard everyone in Smallville should be! And her power is to resurrect dead people?! How lame! And there was practically no follow up to her kiss with Clark, even though there were these tiny little moments throughout the season where judging by the way Allison Mack played her expressions, it seemed she still had some sort of residual feelings for Clark. I still love their friendship though. One of the best things about the show. I thought Lois was written better than she has been since Devoted. I like Lois with a sense of purpose and I particularly enjoyed her in Arrow, Combat, Prototype and Phantom. The kiss with Clark in Hydro was nice, it was a fun little set up but I didn't really care for the way it was done in Crimson. I just really hated that episode. Every single character in that episode was written badly and I wanted to smack them all. I did appreciate though how this season kept consistently writing Clark and Lois scenes together in such a way that atleast it's believable not only that they're friends but that they also care for each other. If ever there is going to be any kind of romantic set up for these two on this show, then a friendship is a surprisingly different way to approach it. I loved Nemesis! What an episode. So good that it seemed almost different from the rest of the season. This, and Labyrinth. My two favorite episodes of the season. Nemesis was amazing. All those Clark and Lex scenes were written so well! And Lana! Wow! I enjoyed Lana in the second half of the season. After finding out about Lex, I loved how she started playing Lex. Her hurt and anger being channeled like this made perfect sense. Kristin Kreuk, I have to say, really was the stand out actress in this season. I'm starting season 7 very nervously, lol.
  6. Season 5 is a funny one for me. Five seasons in, it's probably the first time I'm genuinely frustrated with the show and can't seem to shake it off or laugh it off. I'm really disappointed with what the show has done to Clark and Lex. Of course they have to end up enemies and up until now, the show was doing a great job of showing their bond and their pulling apart too. Suddenly in season 5, everything became a little too drastic for my liking. It's like Clark and Lex became caricatures, not characters. I'm also really disappointed with Clark and Lana's relationship. Again, yes they don't end up together but for them to end the way they did? I hated that bitterness and almost hatred from Lana and Clark's jealousy towards her and Lex. Actually makes all three look petty. I can totally see Lex and Lana being drawn towards each other. I actually quite enjoyed their chemistry too. I can also totally see Lana being disgusted with Clark after Hypnotic. But for her to say 'I don't know how I could ever have loved you' to Clark was such a low blow. Why couldn't the writers have Clark and Lana end things on a better note? Especially after showing us how much they loved each other and showing us what a happy Clark and Lana in love, look like in the first three episodes of the season. Chloe continues to be awesome. At first, when she kissed Clark in Vessel, I thought, uh-oh. Season 2 all over again. But it was a great kiss. I really hope they don't brush this under the rug in the next season. These two need an honest to goodness, real conversation about their relationship. Yes, they're best friends, but obviously Chloe still has some unresolved feelings and I think Clark reciprocated that kiss, so maybe deep down, although he loves Lana, maybe he might want to try being more than friends with Chloe. I'm baffled by the show wasting Lois the way they are. Why is she in such few episodes? And why won't they let her have an actual storyline of her own? After the awesomeness of her first four episodes in season 4, I'm so disappointed. The worst part is, when she's actually allowed a bigger part in certain storylines, like Arrival or Exposed, I'm reminded why I like her. And briefly in Exposed and Oracle, I'm even reminded of why I loved Clark and Lois's chemistry in the early days of season 4. I don't think Lois should have been on in this season at all. I was completely saddened by Jonathon's death. Reckoning already had me bawling but then Vengeance was like a punch in the gut. Oh, Clark. I've given up on trying to make sense of Lionel. I think this season had too few really good episodes and far too many really bad ones. James Marsters as Milton Fine was even wasted eventually. Real shame.
  7. That's true! I've been noticing that Smallville does these 'big' moments really well.
  8. Ok, so I'll admit. I have no idea what the stones arc was all about. I really, truly can't make sense of it. I was so frustrated watching this season because so far the show has had pretty decent season long arcs. Like the Nixon one in 1, the ship and Krypton in 2 and the Luthor one in 3. But here it was like, I was scratching my head throughout. And then there was the whole Isabella and Genevive and Jason angle thrown in. A shame because I actually liked Jason for his first few episodes. I also sensed a shift in tone this season. I can't pinpoint what but it was there. Overall, I don't think this was as strong a season as the previous ones before it. There were some really bad episodes like Krypto, Sacred, Ageless and Forever. And yet. The funny thing is that I'm still really enjoying the show on the whole. I think I'm sold on the characters so completely by now that I'm in it basically till the end, no matter how many crazy witch storylines are thrown at me. What I think season 4 really has going for it are it episodes that are good, are very good. This season already has some of my favorite episodes so far. I absolutely loved Crusade, Run, Transference and Commencement. I think the Alicia mini arc was done really well. Surprisingly poignant. And some silly episodes that on paper would seem ridiculous, actually turned out to be a hoot, like Facade, Devoted, Spell and Spirit. Lois had such a wonderful introduction in those first four episodes, I almost wish she weren't brought back for more in the season. I was completely surprised to see her on in Crusade in the first place, and enjoyed every minute we got of her till Devoted. She seemed like such a fun addition. And although I think she had some nice moments in the rest of the season, they should have just shown her off traveling or something, and then maybe bring her back the next season. Because the show doesn't seem to want her to start her journalism career yet or romance with Clark, despite the odd hints and moments here and there. It would have been nice not to waste her just being around. I don't know if I'm making sense but that's the feeling I got. I also think it's weird that Clark and Lois had this fantastic chemistry in the first four episodes and you could genuinely see this pull between them and then poof. Gone. It's like their scenes later on were written for another two characters altogether. Lana. Oh dear. This was such a trainwreck season for her. And for Clark and Lana. The yo-yo continues. Kristin Kreuk is a good actress I think and when they just let her be and be funny and charming, I remember why I liked Lana. I am LOVING that Chloe knows about Clark. The growth in Chloe is remarkable. She was just terrific throughout the whole season but especially in Commencement. Girl is loyal and fierce! Clark is incredibly lucky to have her in his life. I loved the Chloe and Lois bond as well. These two actresses play well off each other. Horrid season for Lex, I think. Not much better for Clark either but I think Tom Welling has just grown into the most gorgeous man. Still love the Kents. Getting a bit tired of Lionel. I feel really sad about that.
  9. Thank you BkWurm1 :) Lol. Yes, I really am! Omg. Yes, I'm about halfway through season five right now and I think I know what you mean. My strength has already been tested several times!
  10. I just finished watching season 3 for the first time . I liked it but I'm not sure if I liked it as much as the first two seasons. In a way I think it's a better season, quality of episodes wise. Yet I think I still enjoyed seasons 1 and 2 more. The best and most coherent arc was probably the tussle between Lex and Lionel. Absolutely fascinating, these two. Lex is still so intriguing to me. On the one hand he's a genuinely sympathetic character when you see Lionel's influence and then on the other hand you can see his darker nature creeping into things regarding Clark's secret. I think the potential for his darkness is best explained in Talisman when he suggests to Clark that maybe Seegeth is the hero of the story. Someone with a potential for darkness who is convinced they are in the right can sometimes be the most dangerous kind. I'm really feeling the loss of his and Clark's friendship already :( Sad to see Pete go, but perhaps there was nowhere to take the character? It was a great season for Chloe. I really liked that her and Clark talked through their issues, recognized that they existed and then came to an agreement that they still want to be friends. I like this Chloe and I like this version of friendship between Clark and Chloe. I don't know what to say about Clark and Lana. I think I give up. Lana seemed too obsessed with constantly trying to pry Clark's secret out. And Clark also just needs to get over himself and tell Lana if he really loves her. But I think whatever it is, it needs to stop now, because I agree with Pete, it's such a yo-yo. I guess Lana going to Paris is a way for them to ease Lana off the show. I loved this scene from Talisman when the Kents are sitting there cradling Clark and he's all wrapped up in the red blanket. Reminder that no matter how big and strong or alien Clark is, for them, he's still their boy and they love him. I'm really enjoying the show on the whole. So glad I gave this a go!
  11. Oh, ok. See, I had no idea about these behind the scenes shennanigans, lol. I'm done with season 3 now and on to season 4 and I can definitely say, I loved Chloe in season 3. Terrific season for her. Will post more thoughts on season 3 in a bit!
  12. Omg, Christopher Reeves?! This season had Chris Reeves! How did I not know that? Just finished Season 2, and gotta say, the show is not disappointing at all. I loved Rosetta. Probably one of my favorite episodes because I liked how they are introducing us to little bits and pieces of information about Clark's origins. It's also the first episode where I think Tom Welling really hit it out of the park. I had chills when the music came on. I also liked that Jonathon was there with Clark at the end and how they both clung to each other yet both nervous about what they just saw/heard. Good season for Pete too. I'm so glad he knows the secret! It's made him a more enjoyable character. Ok, so I have really fluctuating opinions on the girls this season. I like them both but both alternately annoyed and infuriated me at different points. I really didn't like that Chloe felt entitled to know about Clark and Lana. Like it's somehow Clark's fault that he doesn't feel the same way about her. I'm really surprised this is the route the show went with this. I would have thought considering Clark has chemistry with both of them they would have stretched the triangle out a bit more and made everyones feelings a bit more ambiguous. But I guess not. I really hated Chloe gleefully going off to Lionel in the end. Really? Over something as stupid as a supposed betrayal? And Lana was so irritating in Rosetta that I wanted to smack her. I hated that they had Chloe apologize to her when it was Lana doing the snooping. And also, what was up with her just agreeing with Clark to let him tell Chloe. Why couldn't she? Where's her agency in the whole matter? Having said that, I liked that Chloe and Lana tried to be friends, independent of Clark. I also like how they're developing Chloe's interest in this wall of weird thing. I can imagine her becoming more and more into the investigating of the unknown as the show goes on. I don't know how I feel about Clark and Lana. I really felt for Lana in the last episode when she told Clark she loved him because you could tell her heart was breaking. But they are so dramatic sometimes with them as a couple, it's a bit ridiculous. Wow, the Luthors! Lex is still the most fascinating character. I really believed him in the premiere when he said to Clark that did he really need to ask, as in his involvement with Nixon. I really think Lex himself is convinced he's not really doing anything wrong by investigating about Clark or wanting to know more about him because he genuinely thinks Clark is hiding something. I don't know, it's strange, and yeah, fascinating, lol. I also totally believe he genuinely cares for Clark. So weird! Lionel is such a dick. Hate him. Lobe watching him but hate him. Clark, poor thing. Talk about a bad decision in the finale. I love him though. Love him. He's just got so much shit going on around him, lol. How does he stay sane. I'm really looking forward to season 3. Some questions though, if anyone's willing to answer! This Jor-El, is surely not Clark's father, right? I'm assuming its some other evil alien program that found its way into the ship?? Or if it's Jor-El will they ever explain why he sounded like such a megalomaniac?? And Helen! I'm really confused. Was she always working with Lionel? I'm assuming that was what the exchange of the supposed wedding gift was. Or did she only start working with him in the end? Really confused on her.
  13. I'm literally binge watching. :) Mostly because I have the time these days due to being off from work but also because I'm finding it genuinely engaging. I don't know why I didn't give this a go the first time round. Older and wiser? Or simply older and more tolerant, lol.
  14. I recently started watching Smallville. The first time round I remember catching it in the first season, then for some reason I quit watching and never really got back into it. So this time round, going into it, it was like a fresh show. I only knew vague basics like Clark never puts on the suit and how him and Lex started off as friends at at some point, Jonathon dies. I have to say, I really liked season one. The pilot was such a great set-up. Loved all the characters but Lex was just fascinating. His whole season arc culminated so beautifully in that moment when he hesitated in saving his dad in Tempest. I adore Clark. I felt for him and his feelings and emotions all through the season. I could buy Jonathon and Martha's fear at keeping him safe yet felt their love for him. Whitney and Pete were the only two characters that didn't make as much of an impression. I liked the girls. Clark has chemistry with both and I wouldn't mind at the end of this season to see him with either Lana or Chloe. The Nixon arc was a great one for the season. Ideal for the first season. There were a lot of dud episodes but overall I really enjoyed this season. Standout episodes were Hourglass, Hug, Jitters, Tempest.
